Thessaloniki is a vibrant city with a deep Christian history. For a college group, it is a place to talk about faith under pressure.
Read the Thessalonian letters on site
Paul wrote to encourage a young church facing persecution. College students know that pressure well.
Visit the White Tower and waterfront
Paul entered this city by sea. The waterfront is a good place to imagine his arrival.
Talk about encouragement
Paul's letters to Thessalonica are full of encouragement. Ask each student to write a note of encouragement to another group member.
